Nerf is a type of toy created for safe indoor play that either shoots or is made of foam-like material. Most of the toys are a variety of foam-based weaponry, but there are also several different types of Nerf toys, such as balls for sports like football, basketball, and others. The most famous of the toys are the dart guns (also known as blasters) that shoot projectiles made from Nerf foam. They often feature bright neon colors and soft textures similar to the flagship Nerf ball.
